Nas [Rap]

tomoonn6pence from papayeverte

[Verse 1: K’naan]
Someone called the cops on him
Someone told his pops on him
He was talkin’ crooked
And he had some rocks on him
Tucked, tucked in his socks’s corner
Chucks, chucks and the Charlotte Hornet
Cap when he ‘flow
Then they all surprised on him
Yes he’s a fugee
But he go all Nas on ‘em
Well can’t go pras on ‘em
And he got that crossover
But he from the streets
You don’t cross over
Hut, hut to the block soldiers
Buck, buck to the cop vultures
Nope, no I don’t know pilots
Uh, nigga I know pirates
Violence the islands
Shout out to my idrens
Put your hands up
Like it’s a motherfuckin’ siren

[Hook]
Well I paid all my dues
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Shone a million shoes
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
‘Cause when you got nothing left
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
You got nothing to lose
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah

[Verse 2: Nas]
I used to stand on Vernon and 10
Burnin’ a spliff burner on hip
Wishing to flip a bird
Yac burning my chest
Black certainly I’m dressed
Strictly that army shit
Finish my shift
Pack gone before the dawn hit
Anything I could earn on the strip
Turn it and flip
Watching my back
Cooking that pot
Making it stretch
Discussing with my cliq
Should we duct tape the connect
It’s rough and K’naan knows
He had the same woes
I’m voicing my opinions
I forgot y’all was there
I ain’t know y’all was still listenin’
Be honest I ain’t care
Y’all don’t get my innuendos my interests
Y’all on some simple shit
Thinking I’m preachy
Yeah, my church is the world
Christians sip a cup of this holy water
Stuck at this phony border
It’s custom to enter the main stream
You must front and record
A poorer oratory
Your life story corny
Yo, my Somali niggas know what war be

[Hook]
Well I paid all my dues (paid my dues)
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Shone a million shoes
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
‘Cause when you got nothing left
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
You got nothing to lose
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah

[Verse 3: K’naan]
Remember when niggas said Nas was Somalian
Baseball cap had the tags
Like a yardie and it was written just came out
I was gnarly then
Niggas dreaded seeing me like a Rastafarian
We didn’t know the dresscode though
We was bargainers
The knock off filas with the pumps and cheap cardigans
Niggas looked corny I admit
We was foreigners but this corny kid
Quick send you to the coroners
Y’all know my war story
I won’t repeat it
It’s just injury
My victory’s undefeated
Thought you knew me well
Go back and delete it
I’m in every joint this year
Orthopedic and yes the AK’s are instruments
We do drum ‘em
I’m somewhere between killa and king Solomon
And the shades take half the face
We over stun ‘em and treat obstacles like ass
We overcome ‘em
Man, they really made me do this
I was peaceful like a Buddhist
But then niggas came
And screwed it up like Judas
Now I’m suited up with Lugers, Rugers suddenly intruders
Turn around like hoola hoopers
Fucking losers

[Hook]
Well I paid all my dues
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Shone a million shoes
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
‘Cause when you got nothing left
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
You got nothing to lose
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah

[Outro]
This one’s for the world
This one’s for your girl
This one’s for your Mama
This one’s for your Nana

Beastie Boys - Too Many Rappers feat Nas Lyrics

Mic Check (Nas)
Mic Check
One (one) two (two) three (three)
Too many rappers and there’s still not enough emcees
It goes three (three) two (two) one (one)
MCA, Adrock, Mike D that’s how we get it done like
Ladies and gents attention, Nas in the house
With Beastie Boys we can turn it out
Perpetrators we can point ‘em out
So if you got somethin’ on your mind let it out

Yo, I been in the game since before you was born
I might still be emceein’ even after you’re gone
Strange thought, I know, but my skills still grow
The 80’s, the 90’s, 2000’s and so
On and on until the crack of dawn
Until the year 3000 and beyond
Stay up all night and I M.C
and Never die, cuz death is the cousin sleep

‘Cuz i’m back with the bang boogie,
oogie oogie
Strawberry letter 23 like shuggie
Oh my god just look at me, grandpa been rappin’ since ‘83
Oi’m supersonic like J.J. Fad
Got crazy *** **** pullin out the bag
Don’t forget the tartar sauce, yo cuz it’s sad
All these crab rappers, they’re rappin’ like crabs

I have carte blanche, the vagabond
Nas is a narcissist, my pockets are rotund
I’m no killa, but compared to you i’m more realer
You aint a ….., a mobster or a drug dealer
A slug peeler, you’re not, mafioso, no
You aint got the cutthroat in ya, beginner
I aint tryin’ to hear your racket
You work with police dog, you snitch, you rat, you wear that jacket

How many rappers must get dissed
Gimmie 8 bars and watch me bless this
I start to reminisce, when I miss
The real hip hop with which I persist,
like Rum in mojitos
Bullets in banditos
Matzah balls and soup
Jackets and Troop
Yes Y’all, this is one for the history books
Nasty Nas, what’s the word, count it off in the hook

One (one) two (two) three (three)
Too many rappers and there’s still not enough emcees
It goes three (three) two (two) one (one)
MCA, Adrock, Mike D that’s how we get it done like
Ladies and gents attention, Nas in the house
With Beastie Boys we can turn it out
Perpetrators we can point ‘em out
So if you got somethin’ on your mind let it out

Cuz this the type of lyric goes inside your brain
To blow you bullshit rappers straight out the frame
My lyrics spin round like a hurricane twister
So get your hologram on off of Wolf Blitzer
Too many rappers to shake a stick at
I oughta charge a tax for every weak rap
I had to listen to, ‘cuz we be makin’ stacks
Like Stax records
My squad we gotta pack
We never coming wack

To all you crab rappers and hackers
And circumventers
*souped on* splendour (*probably wrong)
I
take the cake, I stole the mould
The golden microphone, well that’s mine to hold
And why all these biters all up in my crotch-space?
sniffin, muffin, huffin
And mean muggin’ with a Blimpie Bluffin
Back up off me sucka, you aint sayin’ nothin

I”m broader than Broadway, I was in project hallways
Dual tape recorder lacin’ auditoriums all day
I’m just getting started on this beat, this is foreplay
And when this song finished, y’all can sing along with this
By the way I have a strong fetish
For Christian Louboutin steppers, I hear Russian blondes the wettest
But anyway I better pay homage to my fellas
And that’s what’s on my mind,
and the rhyme who’s next up?

Mike D. The man of mystery
History in the makin’, and now we’re takin’
Titles, awards, and accolades
Scarin the competition as I sharpen my blades
We come together like peanut butter and sandwiches
Like pen and paper, like Picasso & canvases
Rockin’ stadiums and shitty bars
Go back in time, send a fax from my car

One (one) two (two) three (three)
Too many rappers and there’s still not enough emcees
It goes three (three) two (two) one (one)
MCA, Adrock, Mike D that’s how we get it done like
Ladies and gents attention, Nas in the house
With Beastie Boys we can turn it out
Perpetrators we can point ‘em out
So if you got somethin’ on your mind let it out

Back in black
I hit the sack
I've been too long I'm glad to be back
Yes I'm let loose
From the noose
That's kept me hanging about
Lookin' at the sky
'Cause it's gettin' me high
Forget the hearse 'cause I'll never die
I got nine lives
Cat's eyes
Abusin' every one of them and running wild

'Cause I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm hey hey hey hey
(Hey hey hey hey)
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black

Back in the back
Of a Cadillac
Number one with a bullet
I'm a power pack
Yes, I'm in a band, with a gang
They've got to catch me if they want me to hang
Cause I'm back on the track
And I'm beatin' the flack
Nobody's gonna get me on another rap
So look at me now
I'm just makin' my play
Don't try to push your luck
Just get out of my way

'Cause I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm hey hey hey hey
(Hey hey hey hey)
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black

Well I'm back, Yes I'm back
Well I'm back, Yes I'm back
Well I'm hey hey hey hey
(Hey hey hey hey)
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black

Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Yes I am
Hey yeah, yeah oh yeah
Back in now
Well I'm hey hey hey hey, I'm back
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey
Back in black
Yes I'm back in black

Out of sight

Lets just fall in love

So we could fall in love
Let's fall in love
We could fall in love
when is like a last again
We could fall in love
Let's fall in love
Be on the stars
and the moon and the sky
lets fall in love
I see you know you see me too
Cause you're slowing down
Put some extra pep in my step
Now I'm trying to be
cool make you turn around
and check me out
We walk by each other daily
But something
bout today that says maybe
The street signs
the city lights all the stars
could lead me to you
And you know
If it's okay with you lets go
Go to some place that we dont know
Don't need a reason baby
we might be crazy
I'm thinking
we should fall in love
We could fall in love
We could fall in love
Be on the stars
and the moon and the sky
Just fall in love
Let's go slow
We got all the time
we could ever need
We could catch a movie and possibly
We could get together more frequently
I can't believe It
We walk by each other daily
But there's something bout today
says maybe
The street signs the city lights
all the stars could lead me to you
And you know
If it's okay wit you let's go
Go to some place that we don't know
Don't need a reason baby
We might be crazy thinking
we should fall in love
Let's fall in love
Let's fall in love
We could fall in love
Let's fall in love
Let's fall in love
We could fall in love
Be on the stars
and the moon and the sky let's go
Just fall in love
If it aint a son
in them air force ones
With all this Rose and
all these blunts
Who dares violates you
must get stopped
Who the king of New York and
Don't say trump
Nas the name
I used to holla at dames
Let em ring the bell at the
stock exchange
Put her in chanel her
Reeboks were lame
Had her front row at the boxing ring
What happened to you girl
you're not the same
Top floor gen we're not playing
Feeling better than I ever did
Nothing negative nggas talk rhetoric
I'm a soldier of love ask Sade
More like frank only do it my way
It dont matter what the blogs say
I go hard like aint nobody signed me
And you know
If it's okay with you lets go
Go to some place that we dont know
Do need a reason baby
we might be crazy I'm thinking
we should fall in love
Let's fall in love
Let's fall in love
We could fall in love
Let's fall in love
Let's fall in love
We could fall in love
Be on the stars
and the moon and the sky
Just fall in love

You said you'd be there for me
In times of trouble when I need you and I'm down
And likewise you need friendship
It's from my side pure love but I see lately things have been changing
You have goals to achieve
But the roads you take abroad and heartless
That wants you make another way
You throw stones
Can you see that I am human I am breathing
But you don't give a damn

Chorus
Can you feel my heart is beating?
Can you see the pain you're causing?
Can you feel my heart is beating?
Can you see the pain you're causing?

Blood, blood, blood.... keeps rushing

And now the world is asleep
How will you ever wake her up when she is deep in her dreams, wishing?
And yet so many die
And still we thing that it is all about us
It's all about you
You sold your soul to the evil and the lust
And the passion and the money and you
Innocent ones die, people hunger for decades
Suffer under civilized armed robbers, modern slaveholders

Chorus

Blood, blood, blood.... keeps rushing

Evaded, eliminated, erased, interrogated
Our tradition, our love for our fellow countrymen,
Our property, our resources - our pride

Can you feel, can you feel my heart beating?
No, no, no.... you don't

Chorus

[Chorus - x2]
Africa must wake up, the sleeping sons of Jacob
For what tomorrow may bring, may a better day come,
Yesterday we were kings, can you tell me young ones --
Who are we today?
Yeah, now

[Verse 1 - Nas (+ Damian Marley)]
The black oasis, Ancient Africa the sacred
The sleeping giant, science, art is your creation
I dreamed that we could visit old Kemet
Your history is too complex and rigid for some Western critics
They want the whole subject diminished
But Africa's the origin of all the world's religions
We praise bridges that carried us over
The battle fronts of Sudanic soldiers, the task put before us
(Do you hear me now?)

[Chorus]

[Verse 2 - Nas]
Who are we today? The slums, diseases, AIDS
We need that all to fade, we cannot be afraid
So who are we today?
We are the morning after, the makeshift youth,
The slaveship captured, our diaspora is the final chapter
The ancestral lineage built pyramids
America's first immigrants, the kings and daughters from our waters
The first architect, the first philosophers
Astronomers, the first prophets and the doctors were us, us

[Bridge - Damian Marley]
Now can we all pray?
Each in his own way,
Teaching and learning,
We can work it out
We'll have a warm bed,
We'll have some warm bread,
Shelter from the storm dread,
And we can work it out
Mother nature feeds all,
In farming and drought
And though selfish in ways, not to share is out
What's a tree without root?
Lion without tooth?
A lie without truth?
You hear me out?

[Chorus - x2, but the second one is:
Africa must wake up,
The sleeping sons of Jacob,
What tomorrow may bring,
May some more love come,
Yesterday we were kings,
I tell ya young bloods,
The world is yours today...]

[K'naan - African verse (??)]

[Guitar/Instrumental break]

[Nas - talking]
We want to thank y'all, everybody out there
This is Nas, Damian Marley
Distant Relatives..
We're all distant relatives, no matter where you from, where you live
How near or far...
Africa, China, Japan, Afghanistan, Israel...
We're all fam, we're all distant relatives
So that's why we came together -- one of the reasons
Why myself and Damian came together,
'Cause we all come from one place, and that's Africa
That's right, you too. And you.
The whole world!
We're all family, we're just spread out all over the place
So to all my distant relatives, let's take it back home!

As we enter Come now we take you
on the biggest adventure
Must be dementia that you ever
thought You could touch our
credentials what's the initials
You be Jamrock the lyrical official
Send out the order
laws and the rituals
Burn candles say prayers
paint murals It is truth we
big news we hood heroes
Break past the anchor
we come to conquer Man a badman
we no play Willy Wonka
And I got the guns I got the ganja
And we could blaze it up on
your block if you want to
Or haze it up stash box in a Hummer
Or you could run up and get done up
Or get something that you
want none of Unlimited amount you
collect from us Direct from us
street intellectuals
And I'm shrewd about decimals
And my man'll speak Patois
And I can speak rap star
Y'all feel me even if it's in
Swahili Or body Ghani
Masuri Sana Switch up the
language and move to Ghana
Salute and honor
real revolution rhymers
Rhythm piranhas
Like true Obamas unfold the drama
Word is out hysteria you heard about
Nas and Jr Gong gonna turn it out
Body the verse until they
scream murder out
The kings is back time to
return the crown Who want it
Tuck your chain we're due coming
Renegades that'll peel you back
like new hundreds Bet your jewels
on it you don't want to lose on it
Either move on or move on it
Queens to Kingston Gunshot
we use and govern the kingdom
Rise of the Winston
I can see the fear up in your eyes
Realize you can die any instant
And I can hear the sound of a voice
When you must lose your life
like mice in the kitchen
Snitching I can see him pissing
on hisself And he's wetting up his
thighs and he trying to resist it
Switching I can smell him
digging up shit like a fly
Come around and be persistent
That's how you end up in a hitlist
Ain't no bad man business
No evidence
Crime scene fingerprint less
Flow effortless
Casual like the weekends
No pressure when
We're comfy and decent
We set this off beasting
Hunting season
And frankly speaking
Word is out hysteria you heard about
Nas and Jr Gong gonna turn it out
Body the verse until they scream
murder out The kings is back
time to return the crown
Who want it Tuck your chain
we're due coming Renegades
that'll peel you back like
new hundreds Bet your jewels
on it you don't want to lose on it
Either move on or move on it
Word is out hysteria you heard about
Nas and Jr Gong gonna turn it out
Body the verse until they scream
murder out The kings is back
time to return the crown
Who want it Tuck your chain
we're due coming
Renegades that'll peel you back
like new hundreds
Bet your jewels on it
you don't want to lose on it
Either move on or move on it

And I've got studios to write in (?)
And I've got news for rejoicing
Now a new sun is rising
I count my blessings
That I'm safe when I'm resting
Furniture in my nesting
But by force I'm suggesting
Ya count your blessings

I've got love and assurance
I've got new health insurance
And I've got strength and endurance
So I count my blessings

And give thanks to the master
That through all the disaster
We're still here together after
Better count your blessings

Cause yo this year, can't wait 'til it gets here
7/21/09, my first song will shine
And it's amazing I'm about to be raisin'
Another main man and like his dad they'll praise him
And some will hate him, just cause we buildin' a nation
Like Bob did with Damian
The world will embrace him, girls'll chase him
Forsee, they will not break him
And when I'm not around, you look for God and thank him

And I've got somewhere to dress for,
And I've got no need to stress for
And so I'll always put my best forth
And count my blessings

And they'll be no need for tissues
'Cause there will be no further issues
If you got someone who miss you,
Man, count your blessings.

I've got love and assurance
I've got new health insurance
And I've got strength and endurance
So I count my blessings

And give thanks to the master
That you are the disaster
We're still here together after
Better count your blessings

You wishin' you were sittin' in the top position
Picture perfect, nothing less 'cause you deserve it
Without the Hermes, you'd have a hurtin'
You knew that you was destined for greatness, for certain
You see the over-zealous, they be thirstin', caught up in emotion
You keepin' your composure like Gershwin
Songs by Earth Wind keep you in the zone, writing verses
So when your pocket's light, know that you have a heavy purpose

We've got Sunday school and daycare
We've got pension and welfare
And though not all will play the game fair
Still I count my blessings

I've joy in abundance
I've got life full of substance
I've got meetings and functions
So I count my blessings

I've got something to live for
I've got surplus to give more
And we're all welcome through His door
So I count my blessings

And give thanks to the master
That you are the disaster
We're still here together after
So I count my blessings

I think you lookin' too hard for it
With the double RR under your garage door
Appreciate the things you work hard for
Hey, count your blessings
Count your blessings
So don't be mad if you ain't fly y'all
You got the means to reach the level I'm on
You should know there's only one Nas y'all
But count your blessings, count your blessings

And I've got studios to voice in
And I've got news for rejoicing
Now a new sun is rising
I count my blessings
That I'm safe when I'm resting
Furniture in my nesting
But by force I'm suggesting
Ya count your blessings

I've got love and assurance
I've got new health insurance
And I've got strength and endurance
So I count my blessings

And give thanks to the master
That you are the disaster
We're still here together after
Better count your blessings

Lord!
Dispear, huh!
Shaka Zulu, Bobo Shanti, Nyabinghi
Man a Mau Mau Warrior
Dispear, eh
Fear and desperation no depression can't tarry ya
Dispear, hey
Ayatollah, Idi Amin, Mennelek,
Man a Masai Warrior
Dispear, eh
Fear and desperation no depression can't tarry ya
This spear
Like burning spirits
And such and such before me
Who all fought for the cause and
Dispear, eh
Enforcing all the laws

The master of the masses
One has power
The other one lacks it
Guns are power
Controlled by assets
Owned by financial forecasters
Who are the masters?
They are the gangsters
They are the bankers
The ones who tax us
The masses
They are us
The sheep, the people
Divided in classes
I go off like a shia bomb
And all y'all see I'm on my
War paint on my face, shit
My nine mm on my waist, shit
I'm a problem
Shoot up your place shit
Let a few go
Then I get low
Blazing Haze again
The masters, the wall street war chiefs
The elitists groups
The masses
They pray to Jesus
Saying he will see us through
The masters are the aristocratic
The masses
Ask if the most high
Is on his way here
I'm trying to stay clear
My mind is my modern day spear

Hey
I say,
Dispear, huh!
Shaka Zulu, Bobo Shanti, Man a Gideon
Man a Mau Mau Warrior
Dispear, eh
Fear and desperation no depression can't tarry ya
Dispear, hey
Through the hands of time and cruel men
It has slew more than a billion
Dispear, eh
It keep on suppressing the humble man's opinion

This lead into Swiss cheese
When the 5th squeeze
Mislead
The media misleads
Scares you to the point
Where you miss sleep
With that said
This lead with this Ruger
And that shooter
Sub-machine gun
Ratta tat through you
Copper tops, hollow points
Will do ya something bad
Our future
Is Mislead
Three strikes
There's no school
When a teacher strikes
This economy
This monopoly
Get no job
Just own your property
Now it's back to
What comes natural
Must survive any how you have to
Dispear, desperation
But I have no fear
When I hold this spear

Mek some bwoy know mi nah smile
Cause this spear nah mek friends
Man a run racket
Man a run scheme
Man a run race
Man a run down Benz
Can't trust a she nor we nor eye
Inna contact lens
Man a run from police
And a run down wealth
And dollars and nah mek sense

So,
Rise up to my defense
Hollow pointed is my preference
Should have been deterred
Don't know what you heard
Get referred
By the wrong reference
When this spear start dispense
It a fly and a tear through fence
Dismember your members
And all of your limbs
Body bust inna nuff segments
Well,
Man a run drugs
Man a run risk
Man all a run out a time and ends
Man a run up and down
And a run fi dem life
And a run down this month rent
Nothin' nah gwan a yard
And food deh a road
Then man hafi go touch pavement
Dispear was a tool
That was used to enslave man
And mek manservant
Escape from despair and desperation
Becomes more urgent
Mankind needs to cleanse and wash out dem soul
With spiritual detergent
A distant army
A distant relative
Controlling the circumference
And any man move with no permission
They're feeling the circumstance of

Dispear, hey
Shaka Zulu, Bobo Shanti, Man a, eh
Man a Mau Mau Warrior
Dispear, eh!
Fear of your recession and depression can't tarry ya
Dispear, hey
Inner city youth dem rise it up disguised as AK-47
Dispear, eh!
And anytime them clap it up the whole city level
Dispear
Like burning spear
And such and such before I
Who all fought for the cause and
Dispear, eh!
They can't ignore me
No!

As I watch your children grow
And the years them carry on
And I miss you even more
Still I send them go to school
And tell them What dem fi know
All of mi friend dem mi salute
Daddigon & Lenny Screw
Another year has come and past
Man a drop like morning dew
Uncle Warrick sick and gone
When him couldn’t catch a flew
Picka T you a mi don
Respect long and overdue
When nothing never did a gwan
You still have on somethin’ new
Our friendship ever last
All when one minus from few
Yes we surely had a blast
We’re like family Me & you
A nuh every path you cross
Lead to somebody whe true
Of the many that are called
Only chosen is a few

CHORUS 1

Acquaintances will fade
Your real friends wont do you wrong

VERSE 2 NAS
Only talking with winners
A looser or two Got my number
Still they think they real
But they just really awfully bitter
Salty niggaz Hate the smarter ones
These are the doubters
Who sour ‘bout my run
I barely made it out the slums
My value high Cause I do more than
Rap about a gun I made money for niggaz
Ya’ll never looking out for none
I helped millionaires get to that very position
Some real millionaires see that’s ill
Cause look at statistics Real millionaires
And I ain’t talking ghetto riches
Thorough business You mistreating niggaz
Heard your folks bleed in prison
You ain’t a G And if you was I don’t recall
Who would roll with ya’ll
Bunch a fucking know it alls
Who’s dough is small Look what’s it come to
Our rapport’s good no more
We was good before
Till I saw what type a dude you took me for
We had a chance to take paper down
What I took was more Because of hatred
Opportunity wasted

CHORUS 2
Your real friends will serve you long
Your car and cloths will fade
Your real friend wont do you wrong
Real friend don’t change Eh

VERSE 4 NAS
May laughter From backstabbers

Real men we have a code of ethics
No question No jealousies No feminine tendencies
We expecting No gossip No phony logic
No counting your homey pocket
Spare no expense for legal defense
If your homey locked up No keeping tabs
On who was the last who looked out
Selfishness That’s a character flaw
No holding out Yo what happened to the honor
You’re dealing with Sensitive Pre Madonna drama
Teflon love For my dudes who solid

VERSE 5 (bridge) JR.GONG
Now plentiful Or scantily My cup be full
Or emptily With arm in arms We’ll all trod on
Through destiny A friend that’s true
Is there for me Respect is due They care for me
ShouldI be down Or even out They’re next to me Hey

CHORUS 1

[Chorus]
Jah told you, in his own words
And I'll see you through
To guide you through this cold world
And I'll see you through

Jah told you, in his own words
And I'll see you through
To guide you through this cold world
And I'll see you through

Two steps away from death, a vest and a holster
I detest detectives arresting us over
Weapons possession, they was checking the Rover
Inspecting the tattoos on my neck and my shoulder
How many times I'm one of six coffin-holders
Or I'm sitting with goons in a visiting room
Flip it, I could've been you
Behind state walls bidding
These are the things that a G pray for, acquit us
A little stash in the safe or a little shorty to wait for 'em
Or a shorty to take the weight for him
What really did I escape from?
Thought I saw God's face on the design on my vintage Claiborne
Swear I see 'em every day in the bus or the train
Or the billboards out there that hang tall
I still give thanks for him, have faith for him
No matter what his name's called

[Chorus]

Hey can you think of a color that you've never seen?
Can you reminisce on places you've never been?
Well is many are called
But them never deemed
Worthy for the cause
Cause them never clean
Help who help themselves
Jah nuh raffle dream
That's why me chummy with Jah Jah
Like a Cherubim
Keep us strong through the winter like an Evergreen
And all of us are more connected than it ever seems
All things are related and creation is a package
Generate together and we increase the wattage
A how them a go manage?
Tell Babylon them can't do Rasta damage
Nor stop we through the passage
Jah did make a promise, God is always honest
Always keep his word, don't care what the plan is
Don't be astonished
Stumbling bocks vanish
One day the meek gonna live inna di palace, whoa!

[Chorus: x2]

Yo, yo,
Some people ask me if I feel the Zionists are real
And in my songs do I plan to expose and reveal
Word to the curb that's under these chrome wheels
My homies is only ones I'm taking care of
But severe reality starts to become more clear
And these know-it-all rappers have become more weird
As if they were superior and fans are inferior
How I balance between the streets and the theories of
Collegiate literature, I hold mirrors up
Give combination's of pain, joy, fear, and love
Through my perspective I can see Jah reflection
In the highest definition getting high with my brethren
Could've asked us why Africans dying from circumcision
They lack proper surgeons, suffer malnutrition
Underestimate the wealth of their own wisdom
It's like it's been exchanged for this penicillin

[Chorus: x2]

Yes
The promise land
Going to the promise land
Yes the promise land
Oh gosh now, through the promise land

Imagine Ghana like California with Sunset Boulevard
Johannesburg would be Miami
Somalia like New York
With the most pretty light
The nuffest pretty car
Ever New Year the African Times Square lock-off
Imagine Lagos like Las Vegas
The ballers dem a ball
Angola like Atlanta
A pure plane take off
Bush Gardens inna Mali
Chicago inna Chad
Magic Kingdom inna Egypt
Philadelphia in Sudan
The Congo like Colorado
Fort Knox inna Gabon
People living in Morocco like the state of Oregon
Algeria warmer than Arizona bring your sun lotion
Early morning class of Yoga on the beach in Senegal
Ethiopia the capital of fi di Congression
A deh so I belong
A deh di The King come from
I can see us all in limos
Jaguars and B'mos
Riding on the King's Highway
To the promise land
Going to the promise land
Oh gosh the promise land
Yeah through the promise land

Promised Land I picture Porsche's
Basquiat Portraits
Pinky Rings realistic princesses
Heiresses bunch a Kings and Queens
Plus I picture fortunes for kids out in Port-Au-Prince
Powerless they not allowed to fit
But not about to slip
Vision Promised Land with fashion like
Madison Ave Manhattan
Saks 5th Ave and
Rodeo
Relaxing popping labels
Promise land no fables
This where the truth's told
Use them two holes
Above your nose
To see the proof yo!
Imagine a contraption that could take us back when
The world was run by black men
Back to the future
Anything can happen
If these are the last days
And hundred-foot waves come crashing down
I get some hash and pounds
Pass around the bud then watch the flood
Can't stop apocalypse
My synopsis is catastrophic
If satellites is causing earthquakes
Will we survive it
Honestly man it's the sign of the times
And the times at hand

There's a lot of work to be done, oh gosh
In the promised land

Talking 'bout promise land
Oh gosh get me to the promise land
The promise land oh the promise land
The promise land

There's plenty of land for you and I
By and by
Lost of food, to share for everyone
Cause that was civilization in the promise land
Answer to the promise land
The promise land
Going to the promise land
There's a lot of work to be done,
In the promise land

This one's for all the leaders

Yeah!
Got out the six hundred
Blunted
Chicks hunt him
Neighborhood know he comin'
Jakes hate him
Snakes could not violate him
Pimps memorize his lines-verbatim
He reps N.Y. yo
Gives C-notes to winos
Not church
It's how he tithe though
He walks the tenement
Sleeps at his super fly condo
My kinda nigga
My icon, my idol
No certificate
For this misfit who handle business
The odds stacked against him
He fights back mackin' Benzes
Never puts cash or ass
Before friendship
He laughs last?
As some die young
He is still existing
Somehow he got around the pitfalls of the system
When he walks we watch
When he talks we listen
Leaders

Who do I follow?
Who do I copy?
Look in to the mirror
And it's you I see look at me
Everything new
Like it fresh from the factory
Everything you do?
It impact me
Your lifestyle attract me
Parents try distract me
When I grow up
I want to be like you exactly (exactly)
And as soon as I get over this acne
There's no way anybody coulda stop me

Me gravitate toward the aura
And all the mannerism
The sending out of orders
And man start moving busy
The locking of the corners?
The streets and all the buildings
Me love you like a father
Me ready and me willing
Anything what you a talk
Is law in my dominion
And me have similar thoughts
I share the same opinions
Me have it say you smart
With me best interest at heart
I'm following your path
Yow mine when you a walk

This one's for all the leaders
Leader
Lets all change the world
Change the world
This one's for all the leaders

Change the world

They appeal to the conscious
The Paramount
The Cesar, the monsters
The grandiose, the matters
The hell on earth pompous
Ellsworth Bumpy Johnson's
The Harlemites the Garveyites
Black as the credit card we swipe
Poppin' Dom tonight
For all of mine
I can see myself back at the Autobahn
Malcolm on the podium
Shells drop to linoleum
Swipe those
Place 'em on display at the Smithsonian
Next to only gems
That were left behind
By holy men
Infectious
Charisma of those who gave us direction
The anti-sexes
Resistance against oppression
Progressive thinking
Ghetto speakers
Protesters against the colored
Only section to the Jena 6 and
The Frost Nixon
The contradiction
The cross the crucifixion
The loss we took for sinning
On Esau's back inscription
That it was written
That nothing is coincidence'n
They took our leaders and they lynched them

This one's for all the leaders
Leader
Lets all change the world
Change the world
This one's for all the leaders
Leader
Lets all change the world
Change the world
Change the world, change the world
Change the world

My generation will make a change

My generation will make a change
This generation will make a change
Now mi love fi see

Diploma And them bound fi great
Because dem nah pick up no
matic and a perpetrate
And then I love the energies
whe dem a generate
My Generation it so special

Because the elders sew
the seed and it a germinate
So anytime dem see the progress
dem a celebrate
Because we rising up
despite of the economy
And then a we a star the show
like the astronomy
And how we keep on breaking

Because we keep remaining
true without apology
The mission ha to carry

Say Gambia to Guadeloupe
Paris to Napoli Say
Zambia to Honolulu back to Tripoli
And everybody want a future
living happily
My generation will make a change
This generation will make a change
My generation will make a change

Can you blame my generation
subjected gentrification
Depicting their frustrations
over ill instrumentation
Cause music is the way
to convey to you what
I'm facing Placing my life
in front of your eyes
for your observation
Now if you can't relate
then maybe you are too complacent
Athletes today are scared
to make Muhammad Ali statements
Whats up with your motto
Will you lead Will you follow
Improve your values
Education is real power
I reach em like Bono
So get rid of your self sorrow
Add some bravado
Get wealthy likes Wells Fargo
Its truth that I am you
And I am proof Surviving through
We do what we gotta do
Yo we could break the cycle
let nobody lie to you
Then maybe put our sons
and our daughters in private school
Cause there's a mission
we gotta finish before we leave
This generation is destined
to do historic deeds
My generation will make a change
This generation will make a change
My generation will make a change
This generation will make a change
uhh if you weather that storm
Then that rain bring sun
Been a long time comin
I know change gone come
Man I gotta keep it movin
to the beat of my drum
Last night I set the future
at the feet of my son
But they thinkin that my generation
gotta die young
If we all come together
then they cant divide one
Don't worry bout it
just be about it
Got a message from god
heaven too crowded
But I say hey young world
you've never looked betta
And I heard change started
with man in the mirror ughh
This generation I'mma represent
A generation led by a black
president Now hows that for change
Who knew that could change
I don't even look at the
flag the same hey ughhh
So when you finish
readin revelations
Thank god for my generation
My generation will make a change
This generation will make a change
My generation will make a change
This generation will make a change

Its Genocide

5th Floor cooking raw

Some of the smartest dummies
Can't read the language of Egyptian mummies
An' a fly go a moon
And can't find food for the starving tummies
Pay no mind to the youths
Cause it's not like the future depends on it
But save the animals in the zoo
Cause the chimpanzee dem a make big money
This is how the media pillages
On the TV the picture is
Savages in villages
And the scientist still can't explain the pyramids, huh
Evangelists making a living
on the videos of ribs of the little kids
Stereotyping the image of the images
And this is what the image is
You buy a khaki pants
And all of a sudden you say a Indiana Jones
An' a thief out gold and thief
out the scrolls and even the buried bones
Some of the worst paparazzis
I've ever seen and I ever known
Put the worst on display so the world can see
And that's all they will ever show
So the ones in the west
Will never move east
And feel like they could be at home
Dem get tricked by the beast
But a where dem ago flee when the monster is fully grown?
Solomonic linage whe dem still can't defeat
and them coulda never clone
My spiritual DNA that print in my soul
and I will forever Own Lord

Huh, we born not knowing, are we born knowing all?
We growing wiser, are we just growing tall?
Can you read thoughts? can you read palms?
Huh, can you predict the future?
can you see storms, coming?
The Earth was flat if you went too far you would fall off
Now the Earth is round if the shape change again
everybody woulda start laugh
The average man can't prove of most of the things
that he chooses to speak of
And still won't research and find out the root
of the truth that you seek of
Scholars teach in Universities and claim that they're
smart and cunning
Tell them find a cure when we sneeze
and that's when their nose start running
And the rich get stitched up, when we get cut
Man a heal dem broken bones in the bush with the wed mud
Can you read signs? can you read stars?
Can you make peace? can you fight war?
Can you milk cows, even though you drive cars? huh
Can you survive, Against All Odds, Now?

Who wrote the Bible? Who wrote the Qur'an?
And was it a lightning storm
That gave birth to the earth
And then dinosaurs were born? damn
Who made up words? who made up numbers?
And what kind of spell is mankind under?
Everything on the planet we preserve and can it
Microwaved it and try it
No matter what we'll survive it
What's hu? what's man? what's human?
Anything along the land we consuming
Eatin', deletin', ruin
Trying to get paper
Gotta have land, gotta have acres
So I can sit back like Jack Nicholson
Watch niggas play the game like the lakers
In a world full of 52 fakers
Gypsies, seances, mystical prayers
You superstitious? throw salt over your shoulders
Make a wish for the day cuz
Like somebody got a doll of me
Stickin' needles in my arteries
But I can't feel it
Sometimes it's like 'pardon me, but I got a real big spirit'
I'm fearless.... I'm fearless
Don't you try and grab hold of my soul
It's like a military soldier since seven years old
I held real dead bodies in my arms
Felt their body turn cold, oh
Why we born in the first place
If this is how we gotta go?
Damn.

all i do is stay focused
looking straight forward at the world
and beyond i feel people pulling me down
i feel some pullin me up
i cant get stuck
i just keep movin forward
i got places to go man

as i walk though the valley of the shadow of death
New York to Cali for the money power respect
It's a Journey someone gets left behind
cause in life you cannot press rewind
Get it right you only have one first change
to make one first impression that last a lifetime
repetitions to perceive itself do you believe in Hell?
Babylon grief from wealth
do you deceive yourself and let your ego swell.
and disregard those who most need your help
Thick skin the dark womb won’t take my soul
Suffice spirits to war to see my wounds
and the evil is felt but the faith is stronger
I was a grown man fall when I was a youngster
But I clench my fist
ready to go against whoever tie my ten's advise in the end

when di armagiddeon start get dread
